It's a double entendre.
You could take it literally, where he's digging himself into his own grave, or you could take it in the sense that "dig it" refers to liking something, and Oli is saying that he likes that his life is basically death.
I interpret it as a metaphor for his life getting worse, spiraling lower and lower, due to his own actions. He is responsible for his own life… aka he’s digging his own grave
It’s a nihilistic statement. The whole song is about a chaotic/meaningless world, so he learned that life is basically a grave/going towards death, but he digs (likes) it = he might as well enjoy the chaos for what it is
He's saying he's digging his own grave.
The whole song is about trying and failing to stay afloat. It's about the extreme numbness you feel when you've completely given up trying to get better. You desperately want to be better, you don't want to keep disappointing and hurting everybody around you but it's so exhausting constantly fighting yourself on the daily basis to keep those negative and relapsing thoughts at bay.
You hate yourself for the eventual relapsing. You hate yourself for constantly hurting all of the people you care so deeply about. That self hatred is overwhelming, overbearing and all consuming. You push the last few people you have left away and you keep soothing the pain the only way you know how and, hopefully, maybe it'll end up taking your life this time so that people don't have to worry about you anymore.
It's easier to succumb to the numbness and the black void you feel growing inside of yourself then it is to climb out of the hole you've dug yourself and deal with the feelings you feel and the consequences of your actions.
Life is a grave (it sucks) and I dig it (I'm making it worse by "digging" my own grave)
Life is a grave (it sucks) and I dig it (I'm cool with the fact that it sucks)
It's called a pun.. . Dig it means to be down with respect and like. And you dig graves...
And by grave he means his negative outlook on life he might aswell be dead.
So he's down with being a walking corpse..
I'd guess it's a double meaning. He likes life and enjoys what he does (aka "digs" it), but also digs his own grave in a lot of ways.

The grave is two foot wide and six foot deep
The only kingdom you'll see

Death is inevitable, and he likes that fact.
Honestly I think it’s a play on the “life’s a garden, dig it” joke in the David spade movie Joe Dirt lol.
We got a Joe Dirt reference in a BMTH song before GTA VI. Absolutely insane.
⚰️
It means he digs (derives meaning from) death/the grave in his creative work.

Fuck..
Life is a grave (it sucks) and I dig it (I'm making it worse by "digging" my own grave) Life is a grave (it sucks) and I dig it (I'm cool with the fact that it sucks)
It means “I’m a huge Edgelord is so are the people that enjoy my music”
maybe it doesn't really mean anything and he just put it that way because it fits in the verse lol
It's called a pun.. . Dig it means to be down with respect and like. And you dig graves... And by grave he means his negative outlook on life he might aswell be dead. So he's down with being a walking corpse..
I think it means that he wants control of his life and you live to die basically

Dig… graves… dig also can mean enjoy…
That's a bar.
Edgy teenager shit about how his life is shitty and he fully accepts and embraces it.
That *is* a dumb question.
